Headline
“Banner of Tiny Wish” from Cyclone-affected Community in Bangladesh
Caption Description
Margareta Wahlström (second from right), Head of the UN Office for Disaster Risk Reduction (UNISDR), delivers to Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon (centre left) the “Banner of a Tiny Wish”, sent by a small farming community in Bangladesh that was hit by Cyclone Sidr in 2007. The Banner symbolizes the community’s wish, and especially that of its youngest members, that UNISDR would be empowered by a fleet of ships with volunteers, supplies and equipment to come to the rescue of endangered communities in the event of similar disasters – the wish that a rescue ship would be just a hand’s distance away.
